Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Remember to Pay the Money (2)
After reprimanding the bodyguard, Aidan Lynch respectfully greeted Raina North and then walked up to Vincent Hawthorne: "Sir, President Hawthorne, please leave The Veridian Institute of Medicine."
Vincent Hawthorne’s face was extremely unpleasant, and he immediately refused: "What does Elias Hawthorne mean by this? Does he think he can casually order his father now? Or does he really think he’s grown strong enough not to pay attention to me anymore?"
Aidan Lynch respectfully replied: "What are you talking about? President Hawthorne has the utmost respect and love for you, how could he disregard you? He’s just worried that you might be manipulated by people with ulterior motives to do something that hurts those close to you and pleases your enemies!"
Claire North’s face burned, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Even though Aidan Lynch didn’t name names, she knew he was referring to her.
Aidan Lynch had no intention of considering Claire North’s feelings; he didn’t spare her even a glance.
"Mr. Hawthorne, let’s go. President Hawthorne is waiting for you."
Vincent Hawthorne couldn’t refuse. Regardless, he didn’t want the relationship with his son to continue as strained as it had been. Coldly, he shot a glance at Raina North: "Raina North, if you dare to cross The Hawthorne, you should be prepared, it won’t end just like that. Weren’t you waiting for the police? Well, you better not run. I promise you, the police will come soon, and I hope you’ll maintain your sharp tongue once you’re in jail!"
Then, he beckoned the bodyguards to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
Raina North suddenly spoke up.
Vincent Hawthorne stopped in his tracks, raising his head high: "Changed your mind? I tell you, it’s too late!"
"Mr. Hawthorne, there’s been a misunderstanding. I wanted to say that The Veridian Institute of Medicine has a policy where damaged equipment needs to be compensated. Look at the mess your people have made, and remember to settle the payment with the logistics before you leave."
"..." Vincent Hawthorne almost exploded with anger. He shouted: "Raina North, you’re something else! You really are a piece of work! Just you wait!"
Raina North nodded to show she understood, and before they reached the door, she loudly added: "Money! Don’t forget to pay the money!"
Aidan Lynch watched Vincent Hawthorne’s nearly furious silhouette, helplessly chuckling as he gave Raina North a thumbs up.
Strong!
President Hawthorne’s wife is truly remarkable.
An ordinary person wouldn’t dare speak to their father-in-law like that.
But then again, an ordinary woman wouldn’t catch President Hawthorne’s eye.
Aidan Lynch greeted Raina North and left with them.
Seeing this, Claire North didn’t stay either, although she didn’t leave The Veridian Institute of Medicine. After all, it’s her work, and she’s taken enough leave recently; Wanda Woods has subtly reminded her several times.
Although it was regrettable that she couldn’t detain Raina North today, she trusted that Vincent Hawthorne wouldn’t let it go.
The current approach is so subtle only because the situation with Baby Hawthorne is still unknown.
If the status of Baby Hawthorne is realized and known to be not good, Vincent Hawthorne certainly wouldn’t give up so easily.
From this perspective, she still needs to figure out the situation inside Raina North’s medical room...
Raina North didn’t pay attention to Claire North; given their relationship, she didn’t expect anything good from her.
After tidying the laboratory briefly, Raina North put on disposable gloves and began examining the herbs she was cultivating. As she was deeply immersed, the door of the laboratory was knocked.
Raina North opened the door to find Wanda Woods standing outside.
She welcomed her in and asked, "Director Woods, what brings you to me?"
"It’s nothing much, just thought you’ve been on leave too long and urging you back to work."
It can’t be that simple.
Raina North indicated she didn’t believe it at all.
